Toward quantum-noise-limited interferometric measurements of optical nonlinearity in vacuum
Ali Aras, Adrien E. Kraych, Xavier Sarazin +3
Quantum Electrodynamics predicts that the vacuum must behave as a nonlinear optical medium: the vacuum optical index should increase when it is stressed by intense electromagnetic…
Performance of a Sagnac interferometer to observe vacuum optical nonlinearity
Aurélie Max Mailliet, Adrien E. Kraych, François Couchot +8
In Quantum Electrodynamics, vacuum becomes a nonlinear optical medium: its optical index should be modified in the presence of intense external electromagnetic fields. The DeLLight…
Interferometric measurement of the deflection of light by light in air
Adrien E. Kraych, Aurélie Max Mailliet, François Couchot +8
The aim of the DeLLight (Deflection of Light by Light) experiment is to observe for the first time the optical nonlinearity in vacuum, as predicted by Quantum Electrodynamics, by m…
Extreme-ultraviolet structured beams via high harmonic generation
Alok Kumar Pandey, Alba de las Heras, Julio San Román +9
Vigorous efforts to harness the topological properties of light have enabled a multitude of novel applications. Translating the applications of structured light to higher spatial a…
A Survey of Spatio-Temporal Couplings throughout High-Power Ultrashort Lasers
Antoine Jeandet, Spencer W. Jolly, Antonin Borot +19
The investigation of spatio-temporal couplings (STCs) of broadband light beams is becoming a key topic for the optimization as well as applications of ultrashort laser systems. Thi…
The DeLLight experiment to observe an optically-induced change of the vacuum index
Scott Robertson, Aurélie Mailliet, Xavier Sarazin +7
Quantum electrodynamics predicts that the vacuum must behave as a nonlinear optical medium: the speed of light should be modified when the vacuum is stressed by intense electromagn…
Refraction of light by light in vacuum
X. Sarazin, F. Couchot, A. Djannati-Atai +4
In very intense electromagnetic fields, the vacuum refractive index is expected to be modified due to nonlinear quantum electrodynamics (QED) properties. Several experimental tests…
